I got my new Blender today, and I read this while I was checking out the CD reviews section:

Quote from: "Blender"

Those who have a hard time telling apart Michelle Branch and Vanessa Carlton will only be further confused by this pretty, earnest ex-hippie-chick.

... so of course I had to check out her music. It is actually alright. I've only heard two songs. One I wasn't that impressed with (Can't Behave, the single) but the other (Mental) I really liked. So we will see if I can get my hands on more tunes what I think of the CD =).

*taps foot waiting for his CD to get here*

3-7 days shipping my ass. This is why I hate ordering things online (especially from Best Buy). We're going on day 9  :razz:.

People at WOTD were talking about her so I checked her out when she was on Leno or one of those shows. She was okay. Her performance, well she seemed scared. I'd have to hear more.

Yeah... I heard the single, didn't like it. I tried the only other song on her site and liked it.. I bought the CD because it was $6.99  :lol:.

... so if I ever get it, we'll see what I think of it.

omg... I've been dealing with kinda a hard situation lately. Then I heard the song "Mental" in my car on the radio and it was almost identical to how I feel. So ofcourse I came back and found out who it was! She's awesome!

It is nice that "Mental" is getting some airplay. It should be released as a single, but unfortunately Island Records completely blew it for Courtney.  :evil:

Here is a message from Courtney on her message board:

Quote

i am sorry to say that after record label issues, i am no longer with island records and there will be no second single...though some stations are currently playing "mental"...
but have no fear, i am in la, writing material and getting ready to make a new record with gary louris of the jayhawks producing...
take care and thanks for the support,
courtney
